    "As, i said, hmd cannot be compared to giant companies, their developement is slow, and there is a reason why. Not enough developers (that are already very hard to find if you can't afford to pay them 150 € per Hour), they are as many as half of a department at Samsung."

    Please clarify...

      Carol, 23 Feb 2023Even worst then before, there are a lot of nokias in my fam... moreI also had Nokia 7 Plus went from Android 8 to 9 then to 10 without a glitch. I can confirm the updates were will optimized, especially the 10 was so smooth. Same experience with Redmi note 10 pro going from Android 11 to 12 with a MIUI skin. Everything worked perfectly no problems whatsoever. Now got the Pixel 6a it has Android 13, and everything works seamlessly.

        Anonymous, 22 Feb 2023Might be true that I am not as smart as you. By the way thi... moreEven worst then before, there are a lot of nokias in my family and i am at the 3rd with android installed, none ever got slower or needed to be thrown away because of android updates, the worst case scenario was a need of factory reset, which is acceptable if the devices goes from let's say android 10 to android 11 or 12. So you're not just talking not to shut up, you also believe what you say even tough you never owned a nokia (well at least not with android, that's for sure), the worst kind of trolling. Your information is all over the place and makes no sense, borderline to para. Please do yourself a favor and learn, not everything that flys can be eaten.
        As for OS, also not true. Only because is android one, does not mean that there is nothing to be done, every released model by every company is close to unique, has it's unique problems and needs unique development, so nope, google is not the company that offer bug fixes or complete OS in Nokia phones, actually hmd uses android 12 core and develop on that, pretty much what every other company is doing. The difference is that hmd does not install all sorts of bloatware possible and a shady launcher, but work on optimising the system for their devices, drivers and bugs.
        It is easy to criticize, i know, way easyer then actually learn it and understand it. Come back tough when you learn how programing and developement works, till then, your words are just there to fill up the empty space.
        P.s i never said that hmd has no good developer, read 3 times before talking, maybe 10 times
        .

            swaraj, 22 Feb 2023Hmd IS a small organization they literally fired employees... moreEven Google has fired employees. Android updates are simpler now for manufacturers doesn't mean that they are cheap and it doesn't require programming. Everything costs money, the reason why HMD states again and again that this mobile would receive Android updates for three years to justify their asking price. But, I really don't know whether this 695 SOC would support Android 15 in future. Since you are smarter than me, I believe that you would time travel for the sake of our Society to find the answer.

            Motorola provides just one Android update to keep their newer mobiles alive and thrilling. Also, they know that it isn't worthier to update their mobiles, since its life span is not as long as Nokia as believed by HMD. I think Nokia mobiles will last forever. Most of the consumers will live with their mobiles in hand for not more than three years. For all these three years, one Android update is more than sufficient (if it is a good update). But, personally, I don't believe in updates. Even if I didn't receive Android updates, I can live with my mobile as long as the existing Android version supports my preferred apps in Play Store. The only thing I would miss is the gimmicks of newer Android versions.

              swaraj, 22 Feb 2023That's probably a chinese company (not all) thing only... moreMight be true that I am not as smart as you. By the way this is not a Tech forum. This is a consumer's forum.

              I would like to point out the point made by you which reads as,

              "Although google made update process easier ... but its never as smooth as the os pre-installed. Because no company invest money to perfect a phone that has already been sold . And yes manufacturers still need programmers to test the os updates provided google. Its why chinese manufacturers dont update their phones . Because it cost them money and they just don't care about consumer after they have made their profit. ".

              Whom do you mean by these words, as it goes without saying that you didn't drag Chinese mobiles here, as you've admitted that they don't provide Android updates.

              Now, I thank you very much for your following statement,

              "I never heard a nokia phone being unusable after os update . Laggy, slow ,bugs ... yes . But not unusable . But my redmi note 6 pro died right after i updated to new miui version ."

              This is what I mean. I never said that their phone would become unusable at any point of time after Android update. But, I really meant the phone's performance issues after Android updates. Most of the consumers would change their mobiles when its performance drops. Some would do research with the same if their time permits.

              Hence your words prove that Android updates deteriorates performance of mobiles in general except Google's Pixel. Google's Pixel is an exception because, it is the symbol of pride of Google. Hence it is worthier to choose Pixel phones over Nokia. I truly believe that you'll not drag Apple Inc. here. At least spare God for God's sake.

                  Android is not a static os ... even a perfect core os update is ruined after subsequent play service updates .you have very limited knowledge in this matter and should do extensive research after you comment on a tech forum. If you want stability over security buy something like moto

From where did you learn that HMD is a small organisation and they can't afford good programmers for Android updates. The biggest joke of this decade. You are simply out of your minds. Manufacturers take advantage of everything just because of people like you who support and speak for them.

                    For your information, Android updates are very simple after Google's introduction of Project Treble. To be precise even Android version rollback is also simple. But, none of these services exists just because of one simple treason. To earn more money. Also, it is much more easier with Stock Android because it doesn't employ additional Custom UI/Skin like other brands. Sometimes Android updates are made bad on purpose to force consumers to go for a new mobile, the reason why mobiles with no promises of Android updates are preferable. But, even in this case mobiles can be made to go bad, through bad security updates. You are in a world full of people smarter than you. You can't find these information anywhere. You have to reason it out for yourself. To put it correctly, even God cannot save our world.

                        As, i said, hmd cannot be compared to giant companies, their developement is slow, and there is a reason why. Not enough developers (that are already very hard to find if you can't afford to pay them 150 € per Hour), they are as many as half of a department at Samsung. Because of the chinese copy paste fload, they are still fighting to step foot on a segment where they stabelize sales. They promise Timely updates, not fastest updates ever. And they always delivered, letting nokia 9 fiasco asside.
                        For me, an update should come when it is ready, as long as the device runs great and has up to date security, i see no reason to rush it. Android 13 brings some performance improvements and little to nothing new beside that stupid implementation where google decided to put wifi and data toggles in the same place (something that i really no not want).i know how to turn off notifications and i always do to all the apps besides the social/email ones so the turn off notification when app installs, is a neet implementation, but not something i really need or care about, it is not like i install apps 30 times a day.
                        If google would put internet access toggle, would be something i would actually care about.
                        It appears that people keep talking about how a 13 and the comming 14 made big leeps when we talk security and privacy. The only big leep in security and privacy would be a real firewall that would let the user to stop apps from leeking information, or spreading viruses in internet. What they do instead is not privacy nor better security algoritms, they actually just limit functionality of the apps, until they become useless, but good that ad infested crapp games and other useless apps can still be installed and still have internet connection...

                              I see little benefit from os updates or changes made

                              I actually regret updates I did get and wish I could rollback OS updates as they hog full 10gb storage on my budget phones and created compatibility issues with apps

                              Just future software never mixes well with older hardware never a good user experience

                              So I don't have anything to look forward too either

A year? By that time, x30 owners will be updating to a version that has been superceded. I'd personally accept something like four months of wait, that's understandable. Five even if there are implementation problems. In the end, Nokia had clean Android, so it should be easier than other brands that user their own forks.

                                        Imbukwa, 18 Feb 2023Have a look at this comments of the X30. That will make you... morePixel phones cost 150 dollars to make .. but they sell it at 500vdollars . Everyone is fazed by the fact that 1. Its made by google and gets the update first . But thats not a feature ... thats discrimination at its best .. whatever new thing they add to a new os version they exclusively do it on their pixel before giving it to anyone else . So naturally they update faster . ( yes they release developer beta versions but google cooks them in oven a lot brfore beta version released for public and guess the device they test it on ..)


                                        Pixels have terrible hardware .. they are using same sony sensor since pixel 2 .. i bet most of you didnt even know that . Its just a software gimmicks to make phouos better than previous version of pixel so they can push sells of their mediocre repetitive handsets that no one gives a crap about . Hmd is equally crap . Their vision definitely doesnt level with old nokia philosophy . I think the only feature they can adopt and endure is the durability . Xr20 was the only true nokia after nokia 9 pureview . These two actually bought something unique to table .



                                        Pureview had its flaws but then every beauty has its flaws . And thats how we progress .. by trying to push limits
